  NAME

    dtu, utd - Copies files between MS-DOS and CLIX

  SYNOPSIS

    dtu [-p] file1 file2

    dtu [-p] file ... directory

    dtu [-p] file ... >file

    utd [-p] file1 file2

    utd [-p] file ... directory

    utd [-p] <file file2

  DESCRIPTION

    The dtu command copies files from MS-DOS to CLIX, and utd command copies
    files from CLIX to MS-DOS.

    Not all CLIX filenames are legal under MS-DOS.  An MS-DOS filename
    consists of eight or fewer characters and an extension of three or fewer
    characters.  The following characters are illegal in MS-DOS filenames:

    ? . , ; : = * / \ + " < >

    If necessary (when using utd to copy several CLIX files to an MS-DOS
    directory), utd forms legal MS-DOS filenames from CLIX filenames.  It does
    so by truncating any names or extensions that are too long and changing
    any illegal characters to @.

    Normally, utd and dtu assume that text files are being copied and adjust
    for the difference in end-of-line and end-of-file conventions between the
    two systems.  The -p flag will override this feature and cause the files
    to be transferred with no interpretation.

    Drive a: (the floppy drive), b: (the external floppy drive for systems
    with two floppy drives), or c: (the DOS partition of the hard disk) may be
    accessed with this command.  If no drive is specified, a: (the floppy
    drive) is assumed.

  EXAMPLES

    utd *.c a:\csrc


    dtu *.h | pg

  FILES

    /dev/dsk/fl         Default floppy device

    /dev/dsk/ufloppy    31/2 inch floppy driver

    /dev/dsk/s0u0p9.0   DOS partition

  NOTES

    MS-DOS pathnames that contain wildcards should be enclosed in quotation
    marks to prevent the shell from interpreting them.

    The dtu and utd commands cannot read or write disks created on versions of
    DOS prior to 2.0.

  CAUTIONS

    The dtu command is no longer supported, and may be broken.  This command
    has been replaced by the mtools command mcopy.

  EXIT VALUES

    Exit values are not valid.
